Indian telecom equipment manufacturers write to PM, seek level playing field

The Indian Telecom Equipment Manufacturers Association (TEMA), in a letter to the Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh on Friday, asked for a level playing field for the home grown telecom equipment manufactures.
While appreciating the government’s resolve to support the Indian telecom equipment manufactures in terms of rightful share in the telecom network business, the TEMA communication highlighted the lack of implementation strategy on part of the government.

Besides creating a level playing field for the Indian Telecom Manufacturers, TEMA has suggested the adoption of the following six points which would create further impetus to the Indian telecom story.
  • Identification of clear milestones and implementation plans for the telecom manufacturing sector
  • Set up a ‘Nodal Expert Council’ for monitoring the implementation of NTP2011
  • Preferential treatment to be mandated for ‘Indian Products’
  • Introduction of R&D Cess on all licensed Telecom Service Providers and incentives for service providers by granting reduced contribution on meeting targets of purchasing “Indian Products
  • Compliance to national standards and certification of all telecom equipments by TEC before induction in the Indian telecom network
  • Remodeling the tax structure so as to dispense with the financial disadvantage for home grown telecom equipment manufacturer

Deployment is expected to begin in Chile and Brazil. According to the company, the service will provide download speeds of 100 Mbps, and between 40-60Mbps on upload.
